[Verse]
  CThrowing Gempty threats
acrBoss at me in paEmssing
and I thought Cthat you had groGwn on up
but nBow I see you’ve been Emacting
so chCildish and iGmmature
You hBurt me with your woEmrds
Called Cme a friend and plGayed pretend
but yBou’ve got it all bEmackwards
[Pre-Chorus]
And I knCow
that when Gall you wanna Bdo is hEmurt me
And you’ll seCe
there’s lGittle reward in stiBnging me like a bEmee
I’ve sCeen your glare, your nGasty looks
PlBotting scare after sEmcare
Don’t cCome for me I’ll fiGght right back
It’s no fBun if you won’t play fBair
[Chorus]
  COh me, Goh my
Not gBonna let this one Emby
Oh mCe, oh Gmy
KBarma’s got you hiEmgh and dry
[Verse]
  CMaybe you sliGpped away
with your Bnasty words in the Empast
but oh not CI, I’ve taken my sGhare of shots
and I swBear I will be your lEmast
So Cunaware and iGgnorant
I swBear you choose to igEmnore
the Csubtle hints and warGnings
that you fBeel aren’t called fEmor
[Pre-chorus]
And I knCow
that when Gall you wanna Bdo is hEmurt me
And you’ll seCe
there’s lGittle reward in stiBnging me like a bEmee
I’ve sCeen your glare, your nGasty looks
PlBotting scare after sEmcare
Don’t cCome for me I’ll fiGght right back
It’s no fBun if you won’t play fBair
[Chorus]
  COh me, Goh my
Not gBonna let this one Emby
Oh meC, oh mGy
KBarma’s got you hiEmgh and dry
[Bridge]
And I CthoughtG  
We could make it woBrkEm  
And I waCntedG  
to give you a BchanceEm  
But yCou just thGrew it all awBayEm  
So nCow, I’m gGonna hold my stBanceB  
[Pre-Chorus]
And I knCow

[Verse]

C G

Throwing empty threats

B Em

across at me in passing

C G

and I thought that you had grown on up

B Em

but now I see you’ve been acting

C G

so childish and immature

B Em

You hurt me with your words

C G

Called me a friend and played pretend

B Em

but you’ve got it all backwards

[Pre-Chorus]

And I know

G B Em

that when all you wanna do is hurt me

And you’ll see

G B Em

there’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

C G

I’ve seen your glare, your nasty looks

B Em

Plotting scare after scare

C G

Don’t come for me I’ll fight right back

B B

It’s no fun if you won’t play fair

[Chorus]

C G

Oh me, oh my

B Em

Not gonna let this one by

C G

Oh me, oh my

B Em

Karma’s got you high and dry

[Verse]

C G

Maybe you slipped away

B Em

with your nasty words in the past

C G

but oh not I, I’ve taken my share of shots

B Em

and I swear I will be your last

C G

So unaware and ignorant

B Em

I swear you choose to ignore

C G

the subtle hints and warnings

B Em

that you feel aren’t called for

[Pre-chorus]

And I know

G B Em

that when all you wanna do is hurt me

And you’ll see

G B Em

there’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

C G

I’ve seen your glare, your nasty looks

B Em

Plotting scare after scare

C G

Don’t come for me I’ll fight right back

B B

It’s no fun if you won’t play fair

[Chorus]

C G

Oh me, oh my

B Em

Not gonna let this one by

C G

Oh me, oh my

B Em

Karma’s got you high and dry

[Bridge]

C G

And I thought

B Em

We could make it work

C G

And I wanted

B Em

to give you a chance

C G B Em

But you just threw it all away

C G B B

So now, I’m gonna hold my stance

[Pre-Chorus]

And I know

G B Em

that when all you wanna do is hurt me

And you’ll see

G B Em

there’s little reward in stinging me like a bee

C G

I’ve seen your glare, your nasty looks

B Em

Plotting scare after scare

C G

Don’t come for me I’ll fight right back

B B

It’s no fun if you won’t play fair

C G B B
